Everyone on the track!
5 ARTISTIC, SPORTING AND FESTIVE EVENTS!
Basketball defies the laws of weightlessness!
Playing with the architecture, visual artist Benedetto Bufalino transforms Hangar Y into a monumental playground that unfolds on two levels, one vertical, on the façade, and one horizontal, on the forecourt. Forced to cross the court to enter or leave the building, visitors are transformed from spectators into impromptu players. The rules of basketball are humorously hijacked by the artist, who does away with the baskets, but offers a multitude of walls on which to try out new figures and even a few dance steps... A sensitive and poetic dialogue is established between the work, the architecture and the history of the place that hosts it.
Surprising, offbeat and sometimes humorous, Benedetto Bufalino's works are also participative. Outside the ultra-codified framework of the museum or art center, passers-by are invited to take a fresh look at a place that was once familiar to them. An installation designed and produced especially for Hangar Y, inviting the public to reappropriate this environment.
Throughout the weekend, the public is invited to take part in / activate Benedetto Bufalino's work.
"The basketball court in front is like a mural inspired by a basketball court. It invites us to contemplate reality by means of simple white lines on an orange background. The piece suggests a new appropriation of the space as a playground. The spectator is invited to come and play, reinventing the rules of this public space. Benedetto Bufalino.
Hangar Y gives carte blanche to the Kivuko Compagnie for a program based on dance and basketball.
SATURDAY JULY 6 AT 3PM - " BOUNCE BACK SHOW (duration: 45 min. approx.)
Four performers - musician, dancer and basketball player - share the stage, accompanied by a basketball. At the start of the game, the "no contact" rule prevails, with only the ball creating a link between the protagonists. Gradually, the game develops, the ball liberating the "players" and bringing their bodies closer together. The distances between the dancers become blurred, giving rise to an aerial dance in which the body is inspired by the ball's trajectory. The music, composed of the sounds of the ball and match recordings, accompanies this transformation. "Bounce Back" is a show in which music, dance and basketball merge to explore human relationships and our capacity for resilience.
The show is followed by a discussion with the artists of the Kivuko Compagnie.
